Do you have gut issues? Have you ever suspected that you might have trouble with gluten?

If you are experiencing chronic health problems, maybe it’s time to consider whether gluten or even grains in general are something that might be a culprit in your health issues.

A permeable gut lining is characteristic of digestive compromise which is caused in part from eating toxic, processed foods. Scientists have discovered that gluten is difficult to digest. When it enters the digestive tract, undigested proteins in gluten can penetrate the gut lining. When the undigested proteins enter the bloodstream they make their way to the blood-brain barrier. These proteins actually act as an opioid in brain receptors, triggering the release of opiods in the body and causing a “high” feeling similar to when drugs such as opium are used.

This can also cause a wide array of symptoms from digestive disorders to eczema, brain fog or inability to concentrate, asthma, frequent infections, auto-immune disease and weight gain, irritability and depression, mal-absorption of nutrients fatigue and muscle weakness, joint and bone problems, and others.

Do you want to learn how real food can change your life and your health, but aren’t sure where to start? If so, there’s a great online eCourse I’d like to tell you about from Kelly The Kitchen Kop. Over 12-weeks, you will learn through multi-media tools that will show you the basics – real food for beginners – and how real food can get your diet and health back on track.

Why would you want to change your diet in the first place?

You are tired of being run-down and not feeling well, and haven’t felt your best for years.

You’ve tried losing weight by following the low-fat mantras of mainstream health experts, but you’ve had no success.

You have children and think perhaps some of the health issues they experience are diet-related, but haven’t seen any results by following the advice of the pediatrician.

Or, perhaps you have been noticing news stories about tainted meat and food recalls, which have been happening for a long time and are becoming more and more widespread. If so, you may just be starting to realize how important it is to be mindful of where your food comes from. More and more of our food supply is riddled with pathogenic bacteria and harmful ingredients that are dangerous to consume.

Whatever the reason, now more than ever – finding clean, healthy food has never been more important to avoid health problems and disease. And in this online eCourse, Kelly will walk you through how to find healthy and safe food for yourself and your family so you’ll know where to shop and what to look for when purchasing food.

When Kelly began her real food conversion some years ago, she spent a lot of time and effort researching – which involved a lot of trial and error. She’s now ready to share all that experience with you in this online eCourse, designed to make the journey into real food easy for you. And Kelly has a family, so she’s also got a lot of experience feeding a group of people and preparing healthy foods for different tastes and needs.
